      They hated Bill Clinton because the “scandal” was that he had consensual sex.

        Curiously when it came to Trump who had sex with thirteen-year-olds and a long history of sexually assaulting women, suddenly all but a few Republicans cared, including none of those in office.

          They said the scandal was that it was consensual not that it was not, so your examples aren’t the opposite.

          Though of course the power dynamics in the Clinton case makes the consent a bit iffy.

      Think a relationship with your superior is ever consensual. Huge power dynamic issues especially when someone’s the president

        From Ms. Lewinsky’s position, it was wholly consensual, in that as a nineteen-year-old intern she got to have sex with a POTUS, and Clinton was not too creepy (for the nineties). Her problem was that once the encounter happened, the White House felt the need to distance her from Clinton which affected her career.

        The You’re Wrong About podcast did a good beeakdown of it all.

      • But fucking a hooker is better than getting a blowjob?

        That’s not the point they made. It was because he lied. It was because he cheated on his wife. Yet trump full on pays for a hooker and no one gives a fuck. Even Dems voted to impeach Clinton.

      And thinking leftists idolize him enough to build a statue of him. Right wingers not knowing the difference between liberals and leftists, again.
